Several sources have claimed that an American sports executive, Jeanie Buss, has undergone plastic surgery. However, she hasn’t confirmed any details regarding the speculations.
As of 2025, she is 63-year-old and looks astonishing even in her 60s.
Jeanie’s father, Jerry Buss, appointed her as the general manager of the second incarnation of the Los Angeles Strings at the age of 19 while she was studying at USC.
On October 6, 2021, ViacomCBS Global Distribution President Dan Cohen announced she had entered into a multi-year distribution agreement for WOW-Women of Wrestling.
Her role with the Lakers increased after serving four years as president of the Great Western Forum.
Since 1995, she has served as the Alternate Governor on the NBA Board of Governors and was named Executive Vice President of Business Operations for the Lakers in 1999.
Jerry had planned that Jeanie handle the business decisions of the team, while his other son, Jim, dealt with the basketball side of the Lakers.
Sporting News named Jeanie as one of the Top 20 Most Influential Women in Sports in 2005, and Forbes called her one of the few powerful women in sports management in 2011.
After the tragic demise of her father in 2013, she became the president of the Lakers.
Ultimately the buck stops with me. I’m president and governor of the team and I have empowered the basketball operations, the front office, to put together a basketball team, working within the confines of the collective-bargaining agreement.

Jeanie Buss’ Plastic Surgery Rumors Remain Speculative
Jeanie Buss has been the subject of plastic surgery rumors in recent years.
While she has never confirmed undergoing any cosmetic procedures, fans have been quick to share their opinions on her changing appearance.
Some fans have applauded Jeanie’s alleged procedures on Reddit, noting that her results appear natural and well-done.
Yea, she looks great. Plastic surgery done correctly I suppose.

Others compared her to celebrities with less successful outcomes, such as Donatella Versace and politician Matt Gaetz, stating that her look is far more refined.
An NBA fan even credited Los Angeles with having the best plastic surgeons in the world, suggesting that if she did undergo surgery, she would choose top-tier professionals.
Meanwhile, not all reactions have been positive. Some critics argue that plastic surgery often detracts from natural beauty.
Jeanie’s facial plastic surgery is ugly… i will never understand this facial plastic surgery thing, women look way more natural and beautiful without it.

However, another fan, Lalouie, defended Jeanie, pointing out that her features may not be the result of surgery at all.
Lalouie noted that her high nose bridge has remained unchanged, making it unclear whether she has had any work done.
Without confirmation from Jeanie herself, the plastic surgery rumors remain speculative.
Whether she has had subtle tweaks or aged gracefully, the discussion highlights the public’s fascination with celebrity appearances and the fine line between enhancement and overdoing it.
Kate Hudson Praises Jeanie Buss As ‘So Cool’ & Open in New Series ‘Running Point’
Kate Hudson, Brenda Song, and Mindy Kaling sat down with Extra’s Melvin Robert to discuss their series Running Point, a comedy-drama executive-produced and co-written by Mindy.
The show follows Kate’s character, a reformed party girl who must step up as a businesswoman when she unexpectedly takes over her family’s professional basketball team.
Loosely inspired by the life of Los Angeles Lakers owner Jeanie Buss, the series explores the challenges of being a female leader in the male-dominated sports world.
Kate, who has known Jeanie since she was 14, shared her excitement about the role.
When I knew that this was loosely based on her experience as the first female basketball owner and what that family dynamic is and how crazy that is I was like what a dream and what an honor.

Furthermore, Kate praised Jeanie for her openness during their conversations about the show. She said Jeanie was so calm and open.
Mindy revealed that the Lakers president approached her five years ago because she loved “The Office” and wanted a humorous take on her story.
She approached me like five years ago… [because] she loved ‘The Office,’ so she is someone who has a very serious job but doesn’t take herself seriously… she could have said, ‘I want the show to be a drama and I want my character to be like hugely important and everyone admires them’ but she’s like, ‘No, I want it to be funny.’
Mindy Kaling
The series also highlights Jeanie’s glamorous lifestyle and the unique challenges of balancing her high-profile role with her personal life.
Brenda Song, whose character is based on Lakers executive Linda Rambis, gushed about working alongside Kate and Kaling, calling the experience “precious” as both an actor, a woman, and a mom.
